Yeah I heard about that part of nastiness. It seems they are doing everything to screw up the world within the next 20 years or less.


oh, the currently australian government is giving the ok to a lot of terrible things. lots of current members of parliament have ties in the business world who use their connections to bring in extra money to the nation's budget. even forest area in victora/tasmania is potentially set to be un-protected, allowing the government to sell it to whoever they wish. it's awful.

Lol in the words of GWB Jr

"The Future? Why should I care I won't be alive then." Its not just them but all over the place things like this is going down, even some rumors on the fracking in the US says in some of those parts Toxic and nuclear waste is being used to pump out the oil.

Things I love:


Things I hate: Corruption. Everything is more expensive than it should be here, since everyone wants your hard-earned money. I hate not having a say anymore in my own country's governance. They say we can still vote, they say the system isn't broken, they say a lot of things to keep people drugged and complacent. I hate how hard it is right now to find a decent job. I hate how expensive an education is, and how poor the quality of that education is. I hate that everyone goes to college now; it gives the illusion that everyone is well-educated, whereas in reality most of them just absorb whatever they are told without really thinking about it. I hate how bitter the people here are becoming due to the deteriorating economy, loss of housing, cost of healthcare, etc. I hate the fact that certain people in positions of power seem to think that we should police the whole world, and that it's OK to throw away American lives for nothing and stick our noses into every conflict whether we are wanted there or not.
It's been too long since we added a state and we haven't annexed Canada yet.

We'd have annexed Canada a long time ago, but apparently that would mean we'd have to start drinking milk from a bag like you guys. That's just too radical a lifestyle change for most Americans to handle.

Wow really no Korea as I expected...but I live in Germany

Korea:
One of the most shittiest place to live in probably. Very strict education. Limited good jobs to only those who graduate from the top 5 universities. Not that great payment from work. No anime community since watching anime = otaku = segregated from the society. Most tend to "hide" their true selves just to fit in the society (probably).

Home of e-sports! Pretty good place to enjoy and have some fun if you're used to the Korean culture. Stores and everything are open like 24/7.

Germany:
What a crappy language. Crappy education system - you have to choose your path either going to college/university or getting the basic degrees or the shitty degrees after year 4. So much boredom.

Lots of nature to be seen around. Pretty wealthy country.

Boos:
Rampant corruption, expensive alkeyhol, ingrained racism, a plethora of potholes, the "Religious" po po, heavy disrespect for authoritah, mountain-sized speed bumps, a lot of smartass people(present company excluded), sand.

Good thing- There is a shop called forbidden planet where all manga and stuff is sold and that is about all.
Bad thing- Too much sectarianism, fighting between religion, riots, Gays are still not allowed to donate blood.....not saying I am Gay just saying, politics and most people my age are Knobs......So if you are going to Ireland you should visit the south......or do not come at all.

I'm from the England.

Its cold miserable and the people are all so boring and back stabbing. all people care about is money and undercutting others so they can be on top, its like living on a ferengi planet or something. Laws and police are a joke and the government is screwing the average people up so much we are practically living like Victorian poor people now.

People are literally starving to death because of the government cuts to support and jobs, I myself have suffered its cruel gaze when it comes to the government cutting off your money for no good reason. Those fat cat bastards sitting in parliament laughing to the bank as they screw up a once proud country.

Vancouver / Surrey, Canada

Why I like it: Very well stable government, cheap food (you just have to know how much something would cost you averagely so you don't feel you're ripped off), nice weather (Vanc. specifically), no people in Library so I enjoy my peaceful time.

Why I dislike it: When people are in the library they just talk and barely read books (this crap possess me off quite a lot actually), ONLY 2 ANIME RETAIL STORE IN THE BIGGEST MALL OF THE CITY, not many anime store facility in here so shipping cost more if it's outside the country, nobody my age gives a crap about Anime unless it's quite popular like SnK, Bleach, Naruto, SAO <--- barely even liked
